Have you checked the boot catch mate? It might need some grease.
I had a similar problem with mine, it was closing but it didn’t look right despite feeling tight when shut. It will probably throw up the boot open light if that is the case. My catch was sticking so I re-greased it and it worked a treat, the mechanism can sometimes get a little stiff so best to try that first.

Ben,
